When Long Yu made up his mind to raise his compatibility with the darkness-attribute divine text to level-13, he felt as if his mind was completely immersed in the current environment of the Shrine of Shadows.
This sort of unparalleled intimacy was something he'd never encountered in the past, and it caused him to feel a trace of gratification in his heart. Feeling the speed at which his Ball of Netherworld's Divine Ability was transforming was ceaselessly increasing, he knew that he hadn't made the wrong decision.
After all, the process of raising his compatibility with the darkness-attribute divine text was irreversible, and he had no way of returning it to level-12 compatibility. Hence, once he raised it, it would never return.
Of course, there were no downsides to improving his compatibility with the darkness-attribute divine text, but the downside was that his compatibility with the other divine texts had finally been weakened.
Originally, apart from his darkness-attribute divine text that had reached level-12, his other divine texts had basically all reached level-10. Now, however, all of them had suddenly fallen to level-9. Now, the power of Long Yu's spatial divine text and Berserker divine text was even weaker than before.
This kind of change was still relatively fatal to a cultivator. Fortunately, Long Yu had the Nether Dragon Blade, which contained water-type Primordial Power and could use void traversal techniques, so Long Yu's need for spatial divine text wasn't particularly great.
Moreover, Long Yu could now use the Nether Dragon Blade to activate the Archean Bridge of Rain, so it wouldn't affect the decline in his strength. On the whole, Long Yu hadn't suffered much, but after reaching level-13 compatibility with the darkness-attribute divine text, his entire body had undergone a transformation.
For ordinary cultivators, level-12 compatibility with the divine text was already the peak, and there was no way to improve it further. Hence, its power was relatively limited.
However, if one could rely on a relatively high-level secret cultivation technique to raise the compatibility from level-12 to level-13, then the cultivator's power would undergo a qualitative change when he used the darkness-attribute divine text!
As for what kind of transformation it would be, it would vary from person to person. Moreover, right now, Long Yu wasn't too sure what kind of changes would occur when he used the darkness-attribute divine text in battle, as well as the various Innate Mystiques.
But all in all, the speed at which he broke through the bottleneck of the Ball of Nine Underworlds was more than twice as fast as before. This was the biggest change that he could see, and it was also a very important change for him at the moment.
However, even though the breakthrough speed had increased, Long Yu knew that it would still take a very long time for him to truly break through the bottleneck of the Ball of Nine Underworlds. He couldn't waste this time. He could at least try to comprehend the Nine Underworlds and try to increase the density of his power again.
Long Yu was basically certain that he was absolutely safe within the divine hall, not to mention that the divine hall was extremely well-hidden. Even if Long Yu came personally, he would not be able to find the divine hall without receiving any prior information.
Not to mention the demigods of other alien races.
The alien races that could invade the territory of the Silk Race were basically existences that only had a power density of twenty times or so. It was basically impossible for them to surpass Long Yu's in terms of perception. Therefore, at least for the time being, Long Yu didn't need to worry that he and the girls would be discovered by other alien races in the shrine.
…
As time flowed by, Long Yu's comprehension of the Netherworld Nine Absolutes gradually increased.
If it was in the outside world, it would take him almost a year to advance from the second round of the Nine Underworlds to the next level. However, in the Clear in the Clear in the Temple, he had no concept of time.
"My compatibility with the darkness-attribute divine text has increased, and my speed of cultivating the Nine Underworlds has also increased. Now, cultivating the second round is slightly more difficult than cultivating the first round …"
Long Yu felt rather regretful. If he had directly increased his compatibility with the darkness-attribute earlier, wouldn't his power density be several times higher now?
However, there was no point in regretting. Fortunately, Long Yu had obtained the opportunity to break through the bottleneck of the Sphere of Nine Underworlds in the Clear in the Clear in the Clear in the Clear in the Temple, and then increased his compatibility with the darkness-attribute divine text along the way. It could be considered a coincidence.
Long Yu's cultivation of the Heavenly Nether Nine Absolutes increased with each level.
During this process, he still couldn't sense the Saint Emperor's consciousness. The pitch-black space he was in blocked off all of his senses, preventing him from communicating with the outside world. Even the communication of consciousness was blocked by the endless darkness.
"The second round of the Nine Underworlds … is complete!"
By the time Long Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, his power density had already risen to a level of 28 times. Moreover, he had completed the second round of cultivation of the Netherworld Nine Absolutes.
Long Yu didn't know how much time had passed in the outside world. However, according to his cultivation speed, if he wanted to complete the second round of the Netherworld Nine Absolutes under the condition of Level 13 Compatibility, he would need around two years.
"Even if there's a certain boost in this temple, at least a year should have passed, right? Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to cultivate to this level. "
Long Yu thought to himself. Afterwards, he chose to increase his compatibility with the darkness-attribute divine text, going from level 13 to level 14.
As for his compatibility with other elemental divine runes, it had been weakened from level nine to level eight. In summary, Long Yu's overall strength had definitely increased. This was because the vast majority of the power he comprehended and used belonged to the category of shadow elemental divine runes.
The most important of the divine texts that he did not use much was the spatial divine text. This could be replaced by the Void Nether Dragon Blade, and it would not affect Long Yu too much.
After reaching level 14 with the darkness-attribute divine text, Long Yu felt like his body was covered in a layer of pitch-black shadow. It gave off a chilling aura of death. The various Connate Mystic Fruits in the miniature world had all been upgraded. After increasing their compatibility with the darkness-attribute divine text, their power had all transformed.
The current Long Yu, even if he used shadow-attribute divine runes to display some ordinary techniques, the power would still be extremely astonishing.
"Raising my compatibility level with the darkness-attribute divine runes to level thirteen and fourteen will double the strength of any darkness-attribute divine rune I cast … just the increase in compatibility level with the darkness-attribute divine runes will almost double my strength."
Long Yu sensed his current strength and found that although his strength density was only 28 times, he could release the power of 30 times the strength density. That made him think of something.
The secret method of Skypalace Nine Exterminations had nine levels in every round, but it was not until now that Long Yu realized that it had been planned.
For a demigod, every ten times the strength density was a transformation. If the Skypalace Nine Exterminations was like that, the transformation of strength did not correspond to the number of rounds of training. However, if it was combined with the improvement of the darkness-attribute divine text, it would be completely reasonable.
If Long Yu had chosen to increase the darkness-attribute divine text at 19 times the strength density, then he would have the power of 20 times the strength density.
Now that he had 28 times the strength density, and he had chosen to increase the darkness-attribute divine text to level 14, the basic power of his techniques would be equivalent to 30 times the strength density!
This made Long Yu clearly feel the strength of the Skypalace Nine Exterminations.
When he was fighting an enemy, his enemy could only see the density of his power, but they would never know that his compatibility with the class of shadow had reached level fourteen. Right now, even if he were to fight some alien demigods whose power density was more than forty times, he might not necessarily lose to them.
"As I expected. I felt that the number of rounds and levels of the Skypalace Nine Exterminations was not right … Now it seems that it was completely planned."
Long Yu was greatly enlightened.
If this continued, when he reached 90 times the strength density, he would be able to exert the power of 100 times the strength density. However, by then, his compatibility with the other divine texts would drop to level 0 …
Unless Long Yu increased his compatibility with the other Divine Runes by two levels during this process, he wouldn't be able to clear it to zero.
After reaching level 12 in compatibility with the darkness-attribute, every increase in level was equivalent to allowing Long Yu to exert the power of double the strength density. However, this was only the basic effect. There were other effects as the compatibility with the darkness-attribute increased, but Long Yu was not clear about them yet.
When he raised his darkness-attribute divine text to level 14, the speed of the Ball of Nine Exterminations' transformation became faster and faster. Long Yu could feel that he was about to break through that bottleneck very soon.
In the shrine, he did not have much concept of time, but he knew that it would not be long before he completed two rounds of the Skypalace Nine Exterminations.
Very soon, his Ball of Nine Exterminations broke through the bottleneck that had existed for a long time. After absorbing the mysterious power in the Shrine of Shadows, an invisible barrier finally broke.
"Now, as long as I kill the other foreign races, I can devour their corpses and let the Ball of Nine Exterminations grow!"
Long Yu thought in his heart. He knew that the current him felt as though he had obtained a new life. In the Clear Cloud Shrine, he had undergone a complete transformation.
However, he was more worried about the other women. He did not know if they had obtained what they wanted in this shrine.
Fortunately, the space in which the Clear Cloud Shrine was located was extremely well hidden. There was a concealment formation that the Silk Race had set up around the shrine to prevent it from being discovered by other foreign races. Therefore, even if the women left the shrine first, they should not encounter any danger.
"The driving force is finally gone."
The pitch-black fog in front of Long Yu gradually dissipated. However, he had also lost the ability to move forward. At this time, the communication between him and the Holy Emperor finally recovered.
